Colleges to devise new mechanism for admission to UG courses in Bengal

The authorities of higher educational institutions in Bengal said that they would devise a mechanism for admission to undergraduate (UG) courses without conducting any test after the results of ISC and CBSE were out.

Principal of Lady Brabourne College Siuli Sarkar said, “this year’s higher secondary result appears to be more balanced and fair based on scientific evaluation process and even if any candidate feels she/he could have done better if offline exams were held that number will not be too high.”

Sarkar said that unlike in the past, when deserving candidates would have to wait indefinitely till the last date as many seats would have been booked by others, this time “we hope the admission will be merit-based only”. She said the college is thinking about a mechanism where the 2019 class 10 board exams score of students will be given importance during admission along with the cut-off eligibility mark for admission to the respective arts or science stream.
